Are there any good sites or info write ups on the swap?..I went to grannys speed site to check out the kit for the swap...Some pretty interesting stuff...I had a LS1 before, but i got rid of the car...I want a project car to work on...

I'm doing an LS1 swap into a 88 RX7 convertable. I'm ordering my parts from Hinson. He has a good reputation, but sometimes has slow turnaround time on some parts. Quality products, though.

I haven't heard many good things about Granny's.

My bad... I don't think Hinson makes a kit for a 83. Is that the first generation? He only makes kits for second and third gens (FC and FD).

well, there are HUNDREDS of SBC powered 1st gens. Shouldn't be any different!

Yes, I'm sure there are hundreds of 1st gen SBC. I only said that Hinson does not make a kit for them.

Look in the hosted forums near the bottom of the torque central web page for the V8RX7
forum.

A SBC kit with adapter plates will do it for ya. My '86 is done that way, fits like a glove. A big, heavy, aluminum glove.

Oh...Guess I misunderstood you. Since you said "well, there are HUNDREDS of SBC powered 1st gens. Shouldn't be any different!", who were you talking to when you said "shouldn't be any different"? I didn't see where your point related to any disscussion except to my post that was right before yours.

So, since this isn't my thread I'll just shut up now.
